Kiwanus Terrell Bonner, 23, of 100 Fairfield Drive, Gaffney, has been charged with possession with intent to distribute marijuana, third or subsequent offense, according to the sheriff's office.

Mueller said Bonner was arrested after he went to the Gaffney Police Department to have a criminal background check completed.

Eighteen people have been arrested in the roundup, which began Thursday. Suspects are facing various charges, including distribution of marijuana, methamphetamine, crack cocaine and prescription drugs, according to a written statement. A total of 20 suspects have been charged with 35 offenses.
